Troll Brev.

Hey everyone!

I’ve been hard at work today recording the audio for the Queering the Runes course, and I wanted to share a little something with all of you.

I’ve intentionally designed the “Queering the Runes” course to be mostly recorded, but also partially live. I know that I tend to get so much more out of an online course when I can interact with the other students and the teacher. So of course there’s a part of my discord server that I’m designing for students to use, and I wanted to have plenty of Q&A sessions.

But I ALSO realized that I wanted to build in places where I can share my ongoing research, and those may change as the years go on.

So what is the live schedule for this round of course? I’m glad you asked!

Here is the course schedule:

Wednesday, January 29th 2025: Material for the first section, “Context Clues,” Drops
Sunday, February 2nd at 7pm CST: Group Ritual for Runic Immersion
Wednesday, February 12th at 7pm CST: Lecture: The World of the Runes
Thursday, February 13th: The Runes: Elder Futhark Online Material Drops
Sunday, February 23: Office Hours open for appointment: 4-9pm
Sunday, February 23: Final sections of the course drop
Wednesday, February 26: Lecture: Working with Runes in an Animist Paradigm
Sunday, March 16: Office Hours open for appointment: 4-9pm
Wednesday, March 19n at 7pm CST: Divination Praxis and Q&A
Wednesday, April 2 at 7pm CST: Rune Magic Praxis and Q&A
Sunday, April 13th at 7pm CST: Closing Ritual and Social Hour

Registration for this round of “Queering the Runes” is open through January 28th! I have early bird pricing available until December 15th, after which the price goes up from $300 to $400!

pssst - if you intended to not be on the launch list, I'm sorry! I'm pre-emptively blaming Mercury Retrograde! If you want to receive less emails about the course while still staying subscribed click here and I will try to filter you out of the email send.

A Year of Rune Magic

Troll Brev. A Year of Rune Magic Pre-S: Quick reminder that registration is still open for "Queering the Runes! Check it out here One of the things that's been coming up lately for me is the idea of immersion. Of balancing dedication with play and experimentation. This is one of the reasons that I've been loving the new podcast, Chaos and Cunning, so very much. It's allowing me to be more experimental in what information from my practice I share. I turned to more modern forms of magic after...

HUGE Announcement: Queering the Runes is now a COURSE

Troll Brev. IT'S FINALLY HERE! I'm so thrilled to announce that I've transformed "Queering the Runes" into a full-blown course! Last winter, when I taught the last fully live version of my "Radical Runes" course, I said that it was because I had too much material for a live course. I wanted to go deeper, and it was so hard to take things OUT of the class so that I could fit it into a reasonable amount of time (read: six 2-hr long sessions). I wanted to give a full lecture for each rune, as...
